Through the Lens: Giroux’s celly and the best photos from the Flyers’ loss to Vegas

The Philadelphia Flyers made history on Monday night as they hosted the Vegas Golden Knights at the Wells Fargo Center for the first time. It marked the return of Pierre-Edouard Bellemare to Philadelphia for the first time since being selected in the expansion draft last summer.

Claude Giroux sniped another goal, putting him within four of a career high, and Wayne Simmonds picked the perfect pocket to beat Marc-Andre Fleury top-shelf on the power play. But, in the end, the Golden Knights got the final laugh, beating Petr Mrazek thrice, including the game-winner with just 2:40 left in regulation.

Let’s take a look through the lens of our photographer Heather Barry‘s best photos from last night’s game.
